Not happy with this product
Hello, I have been taking this product for at least 4 months now. I have a history of IBS and bad constipation.
At first I thought it was helping me. My constipation was getting a little better, but then my symptoms came back.
I started bloating and having gas and my constipation got worse. This was very disappointing, because I was really hoping that this was the answer to my stomach issues.
However, I was wrong.

Dissatisfied
I am on day 7 and I have felt more bloated and the smell of my farts has become embarrassing and constant. I am not going daily but feel slightly constipated. I'm disappointed this is causing such bad gas, so bad that I do not want to continue the process. This is not heading in the direction I had hoped for. I don't feel any energy increase at all. Dissatisfied I waited so long to get it and the bad side effects of the stinky gas is just too negative to persist with this product.

Hi Janeen, this is Chloe from ActivatedYou. I am very sorry to hear about your experience. However, when taking a probiotic, what you mentioned can be normal. Some customers may experience what is commonly known as die-off symptoms. Die-off symptoms occur when the bad bacteria inside of your body is killed off. The bacteria releases toxins which your body does its best to rid itself of, resulting in some unpleasant but short-lived side effects. Most customers do not experience this, but some may, depending on how much bad bacteria is inside your body. Die-off symptoms can include gas, bloating, constipation, diarrhea, skin breakouts, and various other stomach flu-like symptoms. For most people, this can be anywhere from 2-5 days but this may last up to two weeks. I can assure you, however, that these symptoms are very temporary and quite normal whenever a big change is made to someone's diet, lifestyle, or even supplemental regimen. Other customers in similar situations have seen success by increasing their daily water intake and avoiding processed foods. As well as adding raw vegetables to your diet such as asparagus, garlic, dandelion greens, chicory root, artichokes, and onions. These vegetables contain natural prebiotics, which can greatly improve the effectiveness of your supplements. While most customers enjoy our formulas, we understand that they may not be for everyone. For this reason, we stand by our 90-day money-back guarantee. If for any reason you are unhappy with our product. It may be returned for a full refund. If you ever have any questions, please feel free to email me at chloe@activatedyou.com. Have a nice day.

Flavor
I ordered and tried it today, and unfortunately, the flavor of Cinnamon was so disgusting I had to try mixing it with multiple things! It does not blend well with anything and the taste was so disgusting that many people I asked to try could not drink! WHY is it not unflavored? I just wasted all this money on a disgusting supplement that nobody could even take a sip of without wanting to vomit! I am so sorry I ordered. I will be sending it back as soon as possible. Unless you have unflavored. Do not order!

Hello Carol. My name is Chloe. I am with ActivatedYou. I'm sorry to hear that you are not enjoying the taste of Morning Complete. Other customers in similar situations have found they enjoy the taste when mixing one scoop of Morning Complete with their favorite juice or smoothie. Here are some tips that may help you mixing the Morning Complete in your water. I recommend adding 1 scoop of Morning Complete to an empty glass and slowly mixing the powder as you pour the water into your glass. If using a shaker bottle, I recommend adding the Morning Complete to your shaker bottle first, then add half of the suggested amount of water and shake. Once you see the product dissolving, add the rest of the water and shake the bottle again until fully mixed. The suggested water amount is 8 oz. per scoop, however, if you would like to increase the amount you are welcome to do so. If you have a blender or a whisk, this is also a great option to help the powder dissolve completely. We do understand that our product may not be the best fit for everyone. For this reason, we stand by our 90-day money-back guarantee. If you are still unhappy with our formula, you may return it for a full refund. If you ever have any questions in the future, my email is Chloe@activatedyou.com. Have a nice day.

Landed me in the ER with AFIB, company didn't care.
Since the title of this article asks the question, "Is it Safe and Effective?" I decided I had to leave this review.
I ordered this back in January, took a long time to get it, but I was SO excited about it. I really believed in the product and Maggie Q's story, and I couldn't wait to try it. Started taking in February. Experienced two weeks of pretty seriously painful "die-off" symptoms. I almost stopped taking it but pushed through, and those symptoms went away at about two weeks. I took it all of February and March and April. I kept waiting to notice improvements and I just wasn't. In fact, I felt more tired and depleted than usual. I am 38, in good health, vegan, and was eating very clean this whole time.
Then in April I started having heart palpitations. They would come and go. Then one day I was mowing the lawn and I'd been having them all day, and it got so bad I couldn't ignore it anymore. I thought I might be having a heart attack, started to feel nausea. I looked pale and was in a cold sweat. I went to the ER. With Covid, this was something I desperately didn't want to do, but that tells you how bad it was. I was told I was in AFIB and that we needed to control it because of the risk of stroke. After a long night of chest X-rays and ECG wires and blood draws, the doctor comes to me with low potassium, of all things. This was unfathomable because of my diet, I drink green smoothies almost every day and eat lots of high potassium fruits and veggies. I just couldn't figure out how this was possible. This was April 12th, I took all the potassium I could take until the end of the month and when I was out of the high dose of potassium the heart palps would start up again. None of it made sense, and at this point, I thought I had a serious heart condition. This whole time I was taking the Morning Complete every day never dreaming that could be the cause.
After many trips to my doctor, almost being put on a Holter monitor, so much anxiety and stress, my doctor suggested I discontinue the Morning Complete, since that was the only new thing I had recently introduced to my routine, and see what happened. Well lo and behold, we did a blood draw one week after stopping the product, and my potassium had shot up from 3.3 to 4.7, almost the high end of normal, in ONE WEEK of being off the MC. I haven't had a heart palpitation since, and it was undoubtedly the cause. I notified the company and they promptly refunded me. I had like two cases of the stuff stocked up. So I was happy about the refund because it's not cheap. BUT (this is what really bothered me), the person who refunded me was all concern. He said this company takes experiences like yours "VERY SERIOUSLY" and we want to know everything about your experience. Save your bottles. You will be contacted by our team.
So I hung on to them, naively believing this company actually cared about the health of its customers. No one ever called, no one ever wrote. With something as serious as this I was shocked, and was SO disappointed because I actually believed this was an ethical company, and I had trusted them with my health. I think I was too nice, because I still believed in the company as a whole, I wanted to still take their other probiotics, but when they never checked in on this, as if my life being at risk was nothing, I was done.

Bloating and an extended stomach
I’ve been on Morning Complete for 2 weeks and I drink lots of water and exercise and nothing. No regular BM and I don’t feel more energized or healthier. I was so hoping it would work - I was sold on the video and research. I have to stop I feel full all the time and my stomach is sore.

Nothing but bad reviews
I have been taking this product for three days and I have noticed already that I am bloated and not regular like I used to be. I decided to go online and read other people's reviews and was upset to see that there is nothing but bad feedback on here. So with that being said, I am no longer going to be taking this product and I would like my money back ASAP.

Not for me
I bought Morning Complete with high hopes as I am looking forward to slim down by the first week of December this year.
I’m sorry, but I can’t stand the taste and smell. I just wish they’d do a better tasting product. I was hoping it would last me at least a quarter of the day, but I was already tired after noon or so.
I think it would work according to body chemistry. But it definitely is not for me.
I hope I could get a whole refund. Thanks.
